[Bug middle-end/24408] New: [4.1 Regression] Invariant code no longer removed from loop when doing FDO.


There was some discussion on the GCC mailing list in late August, early
September about a performance regression caused by the disabling of the old
loop optimizer when doing FDO.

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2005-08/msg00899.html

Loop invariant motions done by the old loop optimizer no longer occur.  This is
causing a performance regression on some benchmarks.

The following patch enables loop invariant motions during FDO and fixes the
observed performance regression:
